Test your vocab says that I know 32k English words (75th percentile based on American native speakers age 18+ only).
how about you?

Mine does not even reach 10K.
Although the native-speakers 18+ students I deal with seem not to know at least half of my vocabulary :)

True, but who said that their vocabulary is a better point of reference than mine?

Everybody who speaks the language defines it. Look at Hebrew.
